Another year, and my sweet niece Mackinzie is another year older.  I took a look back when I photographed her four-year-old photos, and I just cannot believe how much she’s grown!  *sigh*  Take a look at how much she’s changed!

So, um….can you believe my little munchkin is three???  I mean, yes, it happened back in July, but it’s not official until Mommy does the annual photos.  *sniff sniff*  Brooke is so big!  Not literally big, because she can still wear a size 2T, but so grown up!  I mean the kid can sing the theme song to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles!  That’s grown!

Since Emma has been in school & leaving us ALL DAY, Brooke & I went to scout a new favorite location of mine.  At least that’s what I told her – Mommy needed her help.  I was secretly hoping to get her annual photos in too.  We chased butterflies, picked flowers, and climbed in little trees and here is what we got…

This evening I had the pleasure of having a quick mini session with Matthew & Rowan.  They are brother & sister with about 9 years between them.  From the 20 minutes I spent with them, they get along great!  I hope my girls will continue to get along that well as they grow.  Rowan was a little shy of me first, so she hid behind her big brother quite a lot.  As time went by, though, she began to giggle & talk as any three year old girl does.  And Matthew – props to you!  He was totally willing to do everything I asked, plus help his little sister cooperate.  Thanks bud!  Here’s the first of my summer mini’s – isn’t it amazing what we can capture in 20 short minutes?  Sign up for your session too!
